Steam reveals the top selling games of 2017

Last year Valve released a list of the top-selling Steam games for the first time and the list returns for 2017.

Valve doesn’t dish out sales numbers but instead ranks them by Platinum, Gold, Silver, and Bronze. Not that helpful but at least it gives you an idea of what was selling the most depending on category. The split is as follows:

This year the top releases are also broken down by month and overall there are no huge surprises in each month. Most of the major releases make the top sellers for each month and that’s reflected in the weekly Steam Top Sellers lists we post.

This year there’s an Early Access Grads list, in other words, games that have sold well after leaving an Early Access period. These include:

PUBG

The Long Dark

PUBG

Battlrtite

Slime Rancher

Endless Space 2

Divinity Original Sin 2

UEBS

Portal Knights

Day of Infamy

Torment: Tides of Numenera

Everspace

This year there’s a Most Played list and it’s quite predictable based on the actual game sales we report on each week in our Steam Top Sellers rundowns. The free to play factor also comes into play.
